RE: Win32 Firewalls.

I have had wonderful luck with the BLINK product from eEye. It's cheap, like
40 or 50 bucks a license, has a wonderful interface (very easy to get up and
running), very effective at network firewalling or application firewalling.
And best of all, all the BLINK installs you have in your environment can be
managed from a central management console. It even has vulnerability
scanning built into it which I found very effective as well.

Take a look at it here...

Good luck,

Does anyone know of a "light-weight" client side firewall for Win32 boxes...
I'm looking to deploy a client firewall in a production environment... boxes
will have a large number of current sessions, the firewall would be need to
support stateful inspection, and would be centrally managed, via console and
or policy based.
